How to Know If Your Facebook Request Is Denied: When you request a friend on Facebook, you are only notified of the status of your request if the person accepted the request. Facebook users who receive requests have the option of not taking action on your request or denying it. Though Facebook does not have a notification system for denied requests, you can still determine if your friendship request was denied.

1.Type the name of the person you friend requested into the "Search" box at the top your Facebook account's homepage.

3. Look at the gray button next to the person's name. If the button reads "Friend Request Sent," the person has not yet accepted or declined your friend request. If the button reads "+1 Add Friend," the person denied your friendship request.
